Looking Back on the Hakone Ekiden
Aogaku is as good as it gets! Everyone else is amazing, too!
Every year when I see this, it gives me power in my heart!
Here we go! Here we go!
It's sunny and gorgeous 🍶✨
Third bottle on New Year's Eve. I bought it at a liquor store because of the name and label design. It is a so-called "jacket purchase. It has a strong sense of rice and is full-bodied.
Setoichi: When the wind blows
Special Junmai Sake Jusui Jikkomi
Seto Shuzoten (Kaisei-cho, Kanagawa Prefecture)
Today, a Junmai Ginjo Kakupii from Setoichi in Ashigara, Kanagawa Prefecture❗️
The aroma is a subtle fruity scent of ginjo❗️ sip, and after a mild texture on the tongue comes a tingling and sharp spiciness, followed by a fruity aroma passing through the nose❗️❗️ This Setoichi sake uses a different yeast (M-310,KA4) than the one we had before. It shows the sake brewery's ambition to improve. ⭕️
FUJIYAMA Today, "THAT'S LIFE" from Setoichi in Kanagawa Prefecture❗️ is a one-rank higher sake from Setoichi that I introduced last time❗️ which is made with Aizan.
The aroma is a subtle sweet scent of ginjo❗️ After taking a sip, it has a mild texture on the tongue, followed by a slight bitterness without much tingling. After that, the sweetness of the ginjo is felt, and the sweet aroma leaves through the nose as well.❗️ Compared to the previous "Isa", I prefer "Isa".⭕️
Today, I found "Izu" from Setoichi in Kanagawa,❗️ a sake that also uses Association Yeast 1801 found at a nearby sake food shop,❗️ and "Naotora" from Endo Shuzo in Nagano, but I feel that sake made with 1801 is a sure thing,❗️ so I bought it immediately.❗️
The aroma is a subtle ginjo sweetness: ❗️ After a sip, it has a mild texture on the tongue, followed by the tingling sensation of fresh storage and a slight bitterness on the tongue, then the sweetness of the ginjo spreads throughout the mouth and the sweet aroma passes through the nose: ❗️❗️ is a wonderful sake: ❤️ I also bought a higher grade of Setoichi this time, so I look forward to drinking it: ⭕️
